When the craving came back on with double force I felt like my body wasn't my body. I had known to come here or call for help but when that craving came on it didn't even cross my mind. Some terrible darkness took over and it just happened. Today I'm dismayed - it's so easy to f*** up! Very sober. You couldn't pay me enough to take a drink today. The emptiness I felt with that wine glass in my hand is impossible to describe. How easily can one forget over the course of several months... I'll remember better this time.
They way you described your craving like it was an outa body experience or terrible darkness is EXACTLY the way my cravings are! I truly believe MY disease is the devil! It's evil!

Hang in there. I relapsed after 5.5 years and it sucks! I try not to focus on how much "time" I have now...I just focus on today. :-)
